Countless Angels

How many angels dance and spin
On the head of a tiny pin
Too many for the heart to count
Too many for the mind to mount

Too many for a thought to bare
Too many for the sense to share
Too many for the likes of me
Too many for my eyes to see

How many ghosts dance in wile?
How many spirits fill the file?
How many phantoms store my head
How many live, how many dead?

How many footsteps should there be
The sands of our eternity
Forever is a long, long climb
And much to long for simple time

So do not count the angels please
Just let them frolic in the breeze.

Oh, Seymour~
You have truly touched my heart
with this tenderest of tendered rhyme~

'How many footsteps should there be
The sands of our eternity
Forever is a long, long climb
And much to long for simple time

So do not count the angels please
Just let them frolic in the breeze.'


How I love this~
Love you~
